Using DC Power

You can operate the ventilator using an external battery, detachable
battery, or the internal battery.
External Battery
The ventilator can operate from a 12 VDC deep cycle marine-type
(lead acid) battery using the Philips Respironics Trilogy External
Battery Cable. This cable is pre-wired and properly terminated to
ensure safe connection of an external battery to the ventilator.
Battery operating time depends on the characteristics of the battery
and usage of the device.
Due to a variety of factors, including battery chemistry, battery age,
and use profile, the capacity of the external battery as shown on the
device display is only an estimate of the actual remaining capacity.
Refer to the instructions supplied with the Philips Respironics Trilogy
External Battery Cable for detailed information on how to operate
the device using an external battery.

CAUTION
Do not use the same external
battery to operate both the
ventilator and any other equipment
such as power chairs.
CAUTION
An external battery should only
be connected to the ventilator
using the Respironics Trilogy
External Battery Cable. This
cable is fused, pre-wired and
properly terminated to ensure
safe connection to a standard
deep cycle lead acid battery. Use
of any other adapter or cable
may cause improper operation
of the ventilator.
